Vicious Cycle

“Why am I never good enough?” The words probably would have never registered had I not uttered them before under similar circumstances. The sentence that followed, echoed, “love is hard.” We make it hard. We want to hold on to what we feel strongest for, quite naturally. I believe it takes courage to let love move on. Because when love is right, you won’t question it or long for it or hurt from it.

The person that loves me is hurting right now because I can not give them the love they desire in return. I can not give it because I am still holding on to love for someone else who has someone else. Hopefully, at some point one of us will break the chain. Unfortunately, it will not be me.
